I understand the whole retro look of the website but it's very unreadable with the white text on bright stars background. Fortunately reader mode on Safari helped me read it.

On a similar note, a few months ago, I took over a 14 year old Objective-C iPhone app called Painteresque and brought it back to life. Discussed here:

If OP is interested, maybe I can help with the Sandbox issues or having it published on the Mac App Store?

It’s not the most accessible colour scheme - I’ll have a look and tweak it so dark mode is more readable.

I’d definitely be really grateful for help with that! I’m not planning to publish to the Mac App Store, but it would be great to have the build step a bit more compliant with current practises.

Email me (from my profile) and I can have a look with your sandbox issue.
I was very confused by your comment because for me the background is clouds with black text.

Turns out it changes based on light/dark mode.
